That's a great fucking move by Sweden to finish off the Czechs. Quaison with the goal, Isak with the assist, but it's Karlström who's the real architect of that move. Bloke just came on. I've only seen him play a handful of times before but he looks incredible.

Quaisonnnnnn

Kulusevski is excellent. Keeps it simple.

He’s good but workman like, I’m not particularly bothered about him. He’s like a Stuart Ripley re-gen.

Will be in Tomi’s pocket come NLD time don’t worry.

That's actually a superb assist from Isak. So subtle, perfect weight. He knew where to put that ball long before he received it.

Klaus

Anthony Elanga gets his first appearance for Sweden in the 115th minute.

Isak is really too raw. Not worth spending 75m for his potential alone.

Not sure if you're watching the game, but if you are, what do you think about Kulusevski? Bloke's insane. Sweden should have won this three times over going by the chances he's put on a platter for the others. Quaison just missed open goal from a few yards after an inch-perfect cross from the right flank by Kulusevski. Absolute elite talent. I hate that I can't enjoy him as much now that Spurs have signed him.

Yeah I picked this game to watch.

Kulusevski is elite. That much is obvious. I feel he will be even better centrally as a 10 if Spurs play him there as he is extremely intelligent in reading the game but not quick and agile enough to be a top winger.

Svanberg looks very good too. Before he came on Czech had more control of midfield

Klaus

FT, 1-0 Sweden. Karlström completely changed the game. What a substitution. Is he usually this good in the Polish league, HomeSteak?

This him klaus?

Looks like a fight footed mobile version of Xhaka

Best thing about Italy not qualifying is no Jorginho.

Shame they’re not there as it’ll be a miss for the World Cup

Yeah that's the bloke. I thought he looked fantastic tonight, very direct and confident in his movement. I don't remember him looking this good when he played in the Swedish league!

Whatever it is I'm pretty sure Xhaka is as fight footed as they come.

The African play-offs are really tense matches.

Osimhen is absolute quality once again.

So Ghana are the first African team to make it. Partey with the clinching away goal and from what I can tell, played a pretty strong game.

Klaus

Isak is terrorising the Polish defenders so far in the first half. Just a ridiculously gifted player. He makes football fun to watch.

Yes but not £70m worth imo. Jury still out. I applaud our team for not panic buying in Jan under big fan pressure.

Klaus

Agreed, I think the best thing for all parties would be if Arteta stayed away. He's not to be trusted with talent like this.

Nigeria big miss for a world cup

3 out of 3 misses so far in the play-off between Senegal and Egypt 😆 Salah the worst of them.

Edit: 4 out of 4.

That is fair enough, but only applicable if whoever we buy in the summer is someone who wouldn't have been available in January.
